For owners of country houses or cottages, the issue of arranging a plot and a house adjoining territory always remains relevant. Interesting decorative metal elements will help to decorate the surrounding landscape, make it more “lively”, refined and original.
The easiest way to transform a plot is to make wire shapes. For this, various home-made devices for cold forging of metal are useful. figures from a wire From tools for work you will need a welding machine and a grinder to cut the wire to size (you can do with a hacksaw for metal).
The main stages of work
To make the original decoration of the territory in the form of a cat sitting on the moon, you will need a steel wire with a diameter of 6-8 mm. The first step is to make the head of the animal - for this we bend a short piece of wire in the shape of a horseshoe.
The cat’s eyes can be made of two metal rings of suitable diameter. Then we bend the body, tail with a spiral at the end and the moon itself. To make a crescent, two wires of different lengths, bent in a semicircle, will be required.
Getting to welding parts
When all the basic elements of the decorative "composition" for decorating the local area are ready, we begin welding. First, we weld the silhouette of the cat, and then "seat" it on the crescent. At the last stage, we make a short mustache out of six short bars.
The finished figure must be cleaned with a grinder, then painted with paint from a spray can. As a result, we got a simple but original decorative element made of available materials, which can be used to decorate a summer cottage and a house adjoining territory.
